The most popular dog breed in America is the Labrador Retriever, according to the American Kennel Club. Additionally, the Labrador Retriever is the number one registered dog in the AKC. Labs are sweet, playful, loyal, energetic and affectionate. They grow to be on the bigger side, so are great if you have more space. They are also well-behaved and tend to be really good around children.

The second most popular dog breed in America, according to the American Kennel Club, is the German Shepherd. This medium to large sized working dog originated in, you guessed it, Germany. The breed was once referred to as the Alsatian in parts of Europe, but is now recognized as the German Shepherd. These dogs are loyal, smart, courageous, alert, confident and watchful, so are perfect if you want an extra engaged dog.

The third most popular dog breed in America, according to the American Kennel Club, is the Golden Retriever (retrievers sure are popular, aren’t they?). This large-sized breed is great for families and open spaces. They are well-mannered, obedient, playful, good with kids and sweet; just what you need. These dogs aren’t high maintenance, they usually don’t require high health or training costs. They are ready for any adventure you want to take them on!

The next most popular dog breed is the bulldog. These medium-sized breeds are known for their amiable, light-hearted, willful, docile personalities. They might require a bit more training, but they make up for their naughtiness with their fun, silly, awesome personality!

Lastly, beagles are the fifth most popular dog breed. Beagles are soulful, kind, loving, peaceful, well-behaved, low-maintenance puppies are perfect for the owners that don’t have the lifestyle to always be at their puppy’s beck and call. They tend to be on the smaller side, perfect for smaller spaces.
